Abstract

Purpose: The purpose was to study the corneal refractive power changes associated with the wearing of everted silicone hydrogel soft lenses. Methods: The corneal refractive power and corneal astigmatism were measured using corneal topographer (CT-1000, Shin-nippon Co., Japan) for checking change of corneal refractive power and objective refractive error was measured by auto-refractometer (Natural vision-K 5001, Shin-nippon Co., Japan). We measured at baseline and 1 week after lens wearing. Results: The correcting of corneal refractive power could be effective in low myopia. It's more effective to the higher power of greatest meridian of cornea and the more corneal astigmatism. 73% of subjects' refractive error was decrease less than 1 D and 17% of the subjects had an reverse effect (increase) occurs. The reduction of objective refractive error was more effective when cornea refractive power was great or corneal astigmatism was much. Conclusions: Pressure which the everted silicone hydrogel lens to the cornea could be caused. It occurred as the degrees of corneal power, corneal astigmatism and objective refractive error differences. Selection of an appropriate subject is important considering difficulty of changing the parameters of the lens.

목적: 본 연구는 역방향(Everted) 실리콘 하이드로겔 렌즈 착용 후 각막 굴절력의 변화에 대하여 연구하였다. 방법: 각막 굴절력의 변화를 알아보기 위해 corneal topographer(CT-1000, Shin-nippon Co., Japan)를 이용하여 주경선 굴절력과 각막난시를 측정하였고, 굴절이상도 변화는 자동굴절검사기(Natural vision-K 5001, Shin-nippon Co., Japan)를 이용하여 타각적 굴절검사를 실시하였다. 렌즈 착용 전과 착용 1주일 후의 변화를 알아보았다. 결과: 각막 굴절력의 변화를 본 결과 경도 근시에서 보다 효과적으로 각막 굴절력을 교정할 수 있었고, 각막의 강주경선의 굴절력이 클수록, 각막난시가 많을수록 각막 눌림이 많았다. 대상자의 73%가 1 D이하의 타각적 굴절이상도 감소를 보였고, 17%가 굴절이상도가 증가하는 역효과가 나타났다. 타각적 굴절이상도의 감소는 각막 굴절력이 크고 각막난시가 많을 때 효과적이었다. 결론: 역방향 하이드로겔 렌즈에 의해 각막눌림이 야기될 수 있고, 이는 각막 굴절력과 각막난시, 타각적 굴절이상도에 따라 정도의 차이가 발생하였다. 렌즈의 파라미터를 변경하기 힘든 점을 고려하여 적정한 대상자의 선정이 중요할 것으로 사료된다.
